Terms of Service

Responsum and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Responsum”) provides:
(1) an Responsum user Account website (as defined in Section 2(a)) that may be accessed at www.responsum.ai (the “Site”),
(2) services accessible through the Site (“Web Apps”),
(3) software that may be downloaded to your smartphone or tablet to access services (“Mobile Apps”), and (4) subscription services, including services that can be accessed using the Web Apps and Mobile Apps (“Subscription Services”), all for use in conjunction with Responsum hardware products (“Products”) and in other ways that Responsum provides. Some Responsum products and Services can be used together or in ways that integrate with products and services from third parties. The term “Services” means the Site, Web Apps, Mobile Apps, and Subscription Services.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Services. Please read these terms carefully before you start to use the Services. They require the use of binding arbitration to resolve disputes rather than jury trials or class actions. Please follow the instructions in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section below if you wish to opt out of this provision. The term “you,” as used in these Terms, means any person or entity who accesses or uses the Services and any person or entity who creates an Account and accepts these Terms, including Owners, Authorized Users (as defined in Section 2(b)), and the parents or guardians of Authorized Users (as described in Section 1(b)(ii)). These Terms give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other legal rights in addition, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under these Terms will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or other rights, so those provisions of these Terms may not apply to you.

THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT. BY ACKNOWLEDGING THE AGREEMENT OR BY ACCESSING AND USING THE SERVICES (INCLUDING THE SITE), YOU ARE ACCEPTING AND AGREEING TO THESE TERMS ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY YOU REPRESENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE ACCESS. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT, AUTHORITY, AND CAPACITY (SUBJECT TO SECTION 1(b)(ii) BELOW) TO ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY YOU REPRESENT. YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE, SUBJECT TO SECTION 1(b)(ii) BELOW, OF SUFFICIENT LEGAL AGE IN YOUR JURISDICTION OR RESIDENCE TO USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICES AND TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY OF THE PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS, YOU SHOULD DISCONNECT YOUR PRODUCTS FROM YOUR ACCOUNT (AS DESCRIBED BELOW) AND CEASE ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES.

AS DESCRIBED BELOW, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO AUTOMATIC SOFTWARE UPDATE OF THE SERVICES AND OF THE PRODUCTS CONNECTED TO THE SERVICES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU SHOULD NOT USE THE SERVICES.

AS DESCRIBED BELOW, SECTIONS 4 AND 5 DESCRIBE IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS OF THE SERVICES. PLEASE READ THESE DISCLOSURES CAREFULLY, AS YOU ARE ACKNOWLEDGING THEM AND ACCEPTING THEM.

1. Overview, Eligibility, Customer Service, Term and Termination

(a) Overview and Relation to Other Agreements. These Terms govern your use of the Services. Your purchase of any Product is governed by the limited warranty provided with that Product (“Limited Warranty”) and may further be governed by the Terms & Conditions of Sale. The software embedded in the Product (and any updates thereto) (“Product Software”) is licensed and governed by the End User Licensing Agreement. Certain features of the Services may be subject to additional guidelines, terms, or rules, which will be posted on the Services for such features. All additional guidelines, terms, or rules, and the Website Privacy Policy ("Website Privacy Policy"), are incorporated by reference into these Terms and you are agreeing to accept and abide by them by using the Services.

(b) Eligibility. (i) You may use the Services only if you can form a contract with Responsum (except subject to clause (1)(b)(ii) below), and only if you comply with these Terms and all local, state/provincial, national, and international laws, rules, and regulations. Only individuals age 18 and older may act as Owners of Responsum Accounts. (ii) If you are an Authorized User, you represent and warrant you are over the age of 13, and if you are between the age of 13 and the age of majority in the jurisdiction where you reside, that you will only use the Services under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms. Any use or access to the Services by individuals under the age of 13 is strictly prohibited and violates these Terms. The Services are not available to any users previously prohibited from using the Services by Responsum.

(c) Customer Service. If you have any questions regarding the Products, the Services, or these Terms, please contact Responsum.

(d) Term and Termination. These Terms will remain in full force and effect if you continue to access or use the Services, or until terminated under these Terms. Responsum may (i) suspend or terminate your rights to access or use the Services, or (ii) terminate these Terms regarding you if Responsum in good faith believes that you have used the Services in violation of these Terms, including any incorporated guidelines, terms or rules. If you transfer a Product to a new owner, your right to use the Services regarding that Product automatically terminates, and the new owner will have no right to use the Product or Services under your Account (as described below) and will need to register for a separate Account with Responsum.

(e) Effect of Termination. Upon termination of these Terms, your Account and your right to use the Services will automatically terminate.

2. Accounts

(a) Your Account. To use the Services, you must register for a user account (“Account”) and provide certain information about yourself as prompted by the registration form. You represent and warrant that: (a) all required registration information you submit is truthful and accurate; (b) you will maintain the accuracy of such information; and (c) your use of the Services violates no U.S. or other applicable law or regulation (e.g., you are not in an embargoed country or are not listed as a prohibited or restricted party under applicable export control laws and regulations). You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account login information and for all activities that occur under your Account. You agree to use “strong” passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your Account, and to maintain your password securely to prevent others from gaining access without your permission. You agree to immediately notify Responsum of any unauthorized use, or suspected unauthorized use, of your Account or any other breach of security. Responsum is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above requirements.

(b) The individual who creates an Account is the “Owner” of that Account and is the Owner of the Responsum Products associated with that Account. Individuals authorized to access an Owner’s Products and Services are “Authorized Users.” Authorized Users can use the Services and monitor and control the Products. Authorized Users may also have the ability to view information (including personal information) and content across all of an Owner’s Products, Services, and Works with Responsum connections. Authorized Users are responsible for their own actions in connection with the Products and Services, but Owner also agrees to be fully responsible for all actions taken by Authorized Users relating to the Owner’s Products, Services and Account. If you are an Owner who invites or enables an Authorized User, you acknowledge and agree that such Authorized User may subsequently invite or enable other Authorized Users with the same access and ability to use your Products and Services set out above. If you are an Owner, authorize only those individuals you trust to access your Account, Products, and Services.


3. Access to Services

(a) Access and Use. Subject to these Terms, Responsum grants you a non-transferable, non-exclusive, right (without the right to sublicense) to access and use the Services by (i) using the Web Apps in connection with, and solely for the purpose of, controlling and monitoring the Products you own or are authorized to control and monitor or otherwise accessing a service explicitly provided by Responsum for your use (the “Permitted Purpose”), and (ii) installing and using the Mobile Apps solely on your own handheld mobile device (e.g., iPhone, iPad, or Android smartphone) and solely for the Permitted Purpose.

(b) Automatic Software Updates. Responsum may occasionally develop patches, bug fixes, updates, upgrades and other modifications to improve the performance of the Services and/or the Product Software (“Updates”). These may be automatically installed without providing any additional notice or receiving any additional consent. You consent to this automatic update. If you do not want such Updates, your remedy is to terminate your Account and stop using the Services and the Product. If you do not terminate a previously created Account, you will receive Updates automatically. You acknowledge that you may have to install Updates to use the Services and the Product and you agree to promptly install any Updates Responsum provides. Your continued use of the Services and the Product is your agreement – (i) to these Terms regarding the Services, and (ii) to the End User License Agreement regarding updated Product Software.

(c) Interface to Third-Party Products and Services. Over time, Responsum may provide the opportunity for you to interface the Products and Services to one or more third-party products and services, through and using the Services, for example through the Amazon’s Alexa voice services (“Third Party Products and Services”). You decide whether and with which Third-Party Products and Services you want to interface. Your explicit consent and authorization is required for this interface, and is revocable by you. Once your consent is given for a particular Third-Party Product and Service, you agree that Responsum may exchange information and control data regarding you and your products, including your personal information, to enable the interface you have authorized. Once this information is shared with the particular Third-Party Product and Service, its use will be governed by the third party's privacy policy and not by Responsum's privacy documentation. You acknowledge and agree that Responsum makes no representation or warranty about the safety of any Third-Party Products or Services. Responsum is not responsible for your use of any Third Party Product or Service or any personal injury, death, property damage, or other harm or losses arising from or relating to your use of any Third Party Products or Services. Contact the third party with questions about their Third Party Products and Services.

(d) Certain materials may be displayed or performed on the Services (including, but not limited to text, graphics, articles, photographs, video, images, and illustrations) (“Content”). The Content also includes information you and other users provide us while using the Services (collectively, “User Submissions”), which we may use to provide, maintain and improve the Services. Some content may be visible to others (the Service allows you to upload, post, or otherwise share system environmental data). You may also post feedback, comments, questions, or other information on the Site. You are solely responsible for all Content you upload, post, email, transmit, or otherwise disseminate using, or in connection with, the Services, or that you contribute in any manner to the Services; you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it; and you license to Responsum all patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights in such Content for publication on the Service under these Terms. You will abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions in any Content accessed through the Services, and will not use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell or otherwise exploit for any purposes any Content or third party submissions or other proprietary rights not owned by you: (i) without the express prior written consent of the respective owners, and (ii) in any way that violates any third party right. Responsum reserves the right to remove any Content from the Services for any reason (including, but not limited to, upon receipt of claims or allegations from third parties or authorities relating to such Content or if we are concerned that you may have breached the immediately preceding sentence), or for no reason.

(e) Certain Restrictions. The rights granted to you in these Terms are subject to these restrictions: (i) you agree not to license, sell, rent, lease, transfer, assign, distribute, host, or otherwise commercially exploit the Services; (ii) you agree not to modify, make derivative works of, disassemble, reverse compile, or reverse engineer any part of the Services; (iii) you agree not to access the Services to build a similar or competitive service; (iv) except as stated herein, no part of the Services may be copied, reproduced, distributed, republished, downloaded, displayed, posted, or transmitted in any form or by any means; (v) you agree not to upload, transmit, or distribute any computer viruses, worms, or any software intended to damage or alter a computer or communication network, computer, handheld mobile device, data, the Services, the Product, the Product Software, or any other system, device or property; (vi) you agree not to interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to, the servers or networks connected to the Services or violate the regulations, policies, or procedures of such networks; (vii) you agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services by means other than through the interface provided by Responsum; and (viii) you agree not to remove, obscure or alter any proprietary rights notices (including copyrights and trademark notices) which may be contained in or displayed with the Services. Any future release, update, or other addition to functionality of the Services will be subject to these Terms.

(f) Open Source. Certain items of independent, third party code may be included in the Web Apps and/or Mobile Apps subject to the GNU General Public License (“GPL”) or other open source licenses (“Open Source Software”). The Open Source Software is licensed under the terms of the license that accompanies such Open Source Software. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights under, or grants you rights that supersede, the terms and conditions of any end user license for such Open Source Software. Nothing in these Terms restricts your right to copy, modify, and distribute such Open Source Software subject to the terms of the GPL.

To the extent permissible by law, Responsum accepts no responsibility or liability for any damage or loss caused by your accessing or use of the Site or Responsum Products in a non-Target Country. You will be bound by these Terms wherever you access or use the Site or use the Services.


4. Agreed Usage and Limitations of Responsum Services

(a) Intended Use of Responsum Services. The Services are accessed and used for non-time-critical information and control of Responsum Products. While we aim for the Services to be highly reliable and available, they are not intended to be reliable 100% of the time. The Services are subject to sporadic interruptions and failures for many reasons beyond Responsum’s control, including Wi-Fi intermittency, service provider uptime, mobile notifications and carriers, among others.

You acknowledge that all Content accessed by you using the Services is at your own risk and you will be solely responsible for any damage or loss to any party resulting therefrom.

5. Limitations Of Responsum Services Due to Third Parties.

(a) General. Responsum Services rely on or interoperate with Third Party Products and Services.

You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the use and availability of the Services depends on third party product vendors and service providers, (ii) these Third Party Products and Services may not operate in a reliable manner 100% of the time, and they may affect how the Responsum Services operate, and (iii) Responsum is not responsible for damages and losses due to the operation of these Third Party Products and Services.

Contact the Third Party with questions about their Products and Services.

(e) App Stores. You acknowledge and agree that the availability of the Mobile Apps depends on the third party websites from which you download the Mobile Apps, e.g., the App Store from Apple or the Android app market from Google (each an “App Store”). You acknowledge these Terms are between you and Responsum and not with an App Store. Each App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading Mobile Apps from it. You agree to comply with, and your license to use the Mobile Apps is conditioned upon your compliance with, such App Store terms and conditions. To the extent such other terms and conditions from such App Store are less restrictive than, or otherwise conflict with, the terms and conditions of these Terms, the more restrictive or conflicting terms and conditions in these Terms apply.

(f) Third Party Website Links and Referrals. The Site may contain links to other web sites operated by third parties (“Third Party Site”) and referrals to third party vendors (“Referred Vendors”). Such Third Party Site and Referred Vendors are not under our control. Responsum provides these links and referrals only as a convenience and does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations regarding such Third Party Site or Referred Vendors.

YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, WHICH STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY SIMILAR PROVISION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

11. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW IF YOU WISH TO OPT OUT OF THE REQUIREMENT OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.

(a) Arbitration. Responsum and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims that arise from or relate to these Terms or the Services, except for claims arising from bodily injury. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted, including:

• claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us that is created by or involves these Terms or the Services, regardless of the legal theory;

• claims for mental or emotional distress or other emotional/mental injury arising from the relationship between us;

• claims that arose before you accepted these Terms (such as claims related to disclosures or marketing the Services or the process for seeking approval to use the Services);

• claims that may arise after the termination of your use of the Services or any agreement between us; and

• claims brought by or against our respective subsidiaries, parent companies, members, affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, predecessors, successors, and assigns of these entities, you, and Responsum.

This arbitration agreement does not preclude either of us from bringing an individualized action in small claims court. It also does not preclude either of us from seeking an individualized preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order, pending arbitration, in any court with jurisdiction. Nor does this arbitration agreement bar you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. In addition, you or Responsum may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect your or its trade secrets and intellectual property rights or to prevent loss or damage to its services in any court with competent jurisdiction. You agree that, by entering this agreement, we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class or representative action. These Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision.

(b) Notice of disputes. If either of us intends to seek arbitration of a dispute, that party must provide the other with notice in writing. The notice to Responsum should be sent to: Responsum, ATTN: Responsum Legal Department, 2600 Network Blvd., Suite 570, Frisco, Texas 75034. Responsum will send notice to you at the e-mail and/or mailing addresses associated with your Account. Your notice to Responsum must (a) provide your name, mailing address, and email address; (b) describe the dispute; and (c) state the relief you are requesting. If we cannot agree to resolve the dispute within 60 days after the notice is received, you or we may commence arbitration.

(c) Arbitration procedures. The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. If the AAA is unavailable, the parties will agree to another arbitration provider or the court will appoint a substitute. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you are receiving Responsum Services. If the value of your claim is $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, by telephone, or by an in-person hearing. If the value of your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of how the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision or the arbitrability of disputes are for the court to decide. The arbitrator may consider but is not bound by rulings in other arbitrations between Responsum and Responsum users. The arbitrator can award the same individualized damages and relief that a court can award. Judgment on the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction.

(d) Costs of arbitration. The AAA’s fee schedule is subject to change and may be found in the AAA Rules (available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879). Responsum will pay all AAA filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration that Responsum commences. If you provided Responsum with 60 days’ notice of your intent to arbitrate before commencing arbitration and the value of your claim is $75,000 or less, Responsum will pay your share of any such AAA fees. If the value of your claim exceeds $75,000, the allocation of AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules (unless the law of your state requires Responsum to pay all such fees). If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such cases, the arbitrator may direct you to reimburse Responsum for amounts that Responsum paid on your behalf.

(e) No class arbitration. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only for the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. YOU AND RESPONSUM AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. Further, unless all affected parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection’s limitations on a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.

(f) 30-Day Opt-Out Period. If you do not wish to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this section 11, you must notify Responsum in writing within 30 days of the date you first accept these Terms (unless a longer period is required by applicable law). Your written notification must be mailed to Responsum at the following address: Responsum, ATTN: Responsum Legal Department, 2600 Network Blvd., Suite 570, Frisco, Texas 75034. Subject to section 11(g) below, if you do not notify Responsum under this section 11(f), you agree to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions of these Terms, including such provisions in any Terms revised after your first acceptance. Such notification must include: (a) your name, (b) your Responsum Account number, (c) your mailing address, and (d) a statement you do not wish to resolve disputes with Responsum through arbitration. This notification affects these Terms only; if you previously entered other arbitration agreements with Responsum or enter other such agreements in the future, your notification you are opting out of the arbitration provision in these Terms will not affect the other arbitration agreements between you and Responsum.

(g) Future changes to arbitration provision. If Responsum changes the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section of these Terms (other than a change to the address at which Responsum will receive notices of dispute, opt-out notices, or rejections of future changes to the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Responsum, ATTN: Responsum Legal Department, 2600 Network Blvd., Suite 570, Frisco, Texas 75034. It is unnecessary to send us a rejection of a future change to the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section of these Terms if you had properly opted out of the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this section 11 within the first 30 days after you first accepted these Terms. If you have not properly opted out of the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this section 11, by rejecting a future change, you agree that you will arbitrate any dispute between us under the language of this arbitration provision, as modified by any changes you did not reject.

(h) ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all requirements of this Section 12(b), your DMCA notice may not be valid.

(c) Counter-Notice. If you believe that your Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or under the law, to post and use the material in your Content, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent: (i) Your physical or electronic signature; (ii) Identification of the Content removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Content appeared before it was removed or disabled; (iii) A statement you have a good faith belief that the Content was removed or disabled because of mistake or a misidentification of the Content; and (iv) Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court inBoulder, Texas, and a statement you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

Unless the copyright owner seeks a court order against the Content provider, member or user, the removed Content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Responsum's sole discretion.

13. General

(a) Changes to these Terms. Responsum reserves the right to change these Terms. We'll post notice of modifications to these Terms on this page. You should ensure that you have read and agree with our most recent Terms when you use the Services. Continued use of the Services following notice of such changes will indicate your acknowledgment of such changes and agreement to be bound by the revised Terms.

(b) Governing Law. The courts in some countries will not apply Texas law to some types of disputes. If you reside in one of those countries, then where Texas law is excluded from applying, your country's laws will apply to such disputes related to these terms. Otherwise, you agree these Terms, and any claim, dispute, action, cause of action, issue, or request for relief arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Products and Services will be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide the application of the law of another jurisdiction. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in or for Dallas County, Texas to litigate all such claims or disputes, unless such claim or dispute must be arbitrated as set forth in an above section.

(c) Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Responsum may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect its confidential information and intellectual property rights or to prevent loss of data or damage to its servers in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) Entire Agreement/Severability. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Responsum regarding the Services. Any failure by Responsum to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. Neither party is an agent or partner of the other party.

(e) Survivability. The obligations in Sections 3(d), 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 13 will survive any expiration or termination of these Terms.

(f) Assignment. These Terms, and any associated rights or obligations, may not be assigned or otherwise transferred by you without Responsum’s prior written consent. These Terms may be assigned by Responsum without restriction. These Terms are binding upon any permitted assignee.

(g) Notifications. Responsum may provide notifications to you as required by law or for marketing or other purposes via (at its option) email to the primary email associated with your Account, mobile notifications, hard copy, or posting of such notice on www.Responsum.com. Responsum is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications. Responsum recommends that you add @Responsum.com email addresses to your email address book to help ensure you receive email notifications from Responsum.
